How Good Can Monolayer MoS2 Transistors Be?

Yoon, Youngki, Ganapathi, Kartik, Salahuddin, Sayeef·2011·Nano Letters

Abstract

Monolayer molybdenum disulfide (MoS(2)), unlike its bulk form, is a direct band gap semiconductor with a band gap of 1.8 eV. Recently, field-effect transistors have been demonstrated experimentally using a mechanically exfoliated MoS(2) monolayer, showing promising potential for next generation electronics. Here we project the ultimate performance limit of MoS(2) transistors by using nonequilibrium Green's function based quantum transport simulations. Our simulation results show that the strength of MoS(2) transistors lies in large ON-OFF current ratio (>10(10)), immunity to short channel effects (drain-induced barrier lowering ∼10 mV/V), and abrupt switching (subthreshold swing as low as 60 mV/decade). Our comparison of monolayer MoS(2) transistors to the state-of-the-art III-V materials based transistors, reveals that while MoS(2) transistors may not be ideal for high-performance applications due to heavier electron effective mass (m = 0.45 m(0)) and a lower mobility, they can be an attractive alternative for low power applications thanks to the large band gap and the excellent electrostatic integrity inherent in a two-dimensional system.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
